Place your bets on Super Bowl LII

As Miami welcomes the majority of its students back to campus this week, America will be celebrating perhaps her most significant unofficial national holiday: the Super Bowl. The grand spectacle features (usually) great football and (sometimes) the biggest names in entertainment.

Every last dollar is squeezed out of a 60 minute game stretched to last four hours.
